Pls bring examples.

Huron can't carry anything heavier than a Hunter. That's good enough to prompt n examination by the devs.

An Oshkosh M-ATV (Hunter) weighs 32,500 lb (14,700 kg). A Chinook (Huron) sling load capacity is 26,000 lb (11.600 kg).

This is my examination of 5 minutes of Googling. ;-) Remember that a Hunter is not a WW2 jeep, it's a big, armored all-terrain vehicle.

And if you were thinking about a helicopter carrying a tank. No.
